HB 42: Longevity Pay Increase
2003 General Session
Sponsor: Rep. Wayne Johnson (R, H 9); co-sponsors Reps. George McMurtrey (R, H52),
Larry Meuli (R, H8), Wayne Reese (D, H11), Jane Warren (D, H13) and
Sen. Rich Cathcart (D, S6)
        
HB 42 amended longevity pay for state employees in the state compensation plan, increasing it from $30 to $40 per month for every five years of service.
        
Last year, the 2002 general government appropriations bill included longevity pay at the $40 per month level, but that appropriation will expire in June 2004. At that time, longevity pay will drop back to $30 per month.
        
By amending the state compensation plan, HB 42 would have made the $40 longevity pay permanent.
        
The bill passed the House, 48-11 with one conflict of interest (Rep. Mary Gilmore, D. H59).
        
The bill was referred to the Senate Appropriations Committee, where the Chair of the committee (Senator John Schiffer, R-S22, Kaycee) refused to schedule the bill for a hearing. The bill died without Senate debate or vote.
        
The vote listed below is the House Third Reading (final passage) vote.
        
A YES vote means the legislator supported raising longevity pay for state employees from $30 to $40 per month, for every five years of service.
        
A NO vote means the legislator did not support raising longevity pay for state employees.
